“Them’s the Shakes is not just a show about living with Parkinsons. It’s about finding connection in difficult times. It made me laugh, cry, and laugh again. You don’t need to experience Parkinsons to relate—the human emotions behind the story felt universal.”

“A hidden gem of the Hollywood Fringe Festival, a rare experience of truth on stage . . . Moody makes us laugh, makes us cry . . . It is a show about love, about caring so deeply.”

“It took me a second to collect my thoughts after this show because it was that moving. Jeremy is such a talent and crafted a beautifully heartfelt story. I’m so glad he chose to share it at fringe. There was plenty of levity sprinkled throughout and it was a bit of a bait and switch, expecting to come in and learn about his experiences when in reality this is the cutest love story. I loved it so so much.”

“A beautiful and impactful story. Jeremy has created a piece of well shaped theatre that leaves you with hope even through the heartbreak.”

— Kristina Miller-Weston

“Heartbreaking. Heartwarming. Brutally honest. Full of hope. Jeremy Moody opens himself up: exposing the most vulnerable parts of himself as he invites the audience to sit in stillness while Parkinson’s shakes up his life. Jeremy takes us through his Parkinson’s diagnosis, the whirlwind of dating while having chronic illness, and the unconditional love and heartbreak of becoming an uncle. This show is why we make theatre. This show is why we tell stories. To learn and understand new aspects of the human experience and the power of resilience.”

— Nicole Ohara

“It was a show like no other. Deeply personal and vulnerable. This show truly expressed emotion in the most raw and real form. It felt like a conversation with us. We were going through the motions with Jeremy and he guided us beautifully.”

— Bita Arefina

“Thoughtful, moving, and engaging. The topic itself is deep and emotional, but the show never felt depressing. Instead, it invited reflection and gave me a greater understanding of Parkinson’s and how it affects people beyond what we typically hear or imagine. I left the theater with more empathy and a lot to think about.”
